Villeneuve sets fastest lap at Speedcar Series test session

Jacques Villeneuve set the pace on the first day of the Speedcar Series
test session at the Dubai Autodrome. This 2-day test is the final one
before the start of Season 2 on 5-6 December, 2008.

Nine drivers attended the test session today. Former F1 drivers Jacques
Villeneuve and Stefan Johansson as well as Mathias Lauda were all part of
Speedcar Series' debut season. Today was the first opportunity they have
had to test the Speedcars newly evolved with 6.2 litre engines and
composite panelled bodies.

Fresh drivers to the Series included locally based Khalid Al Zarooni,
Eric Charles and Christopher Zoechling who have tested the Speedcars at
previous sessions held at the Dubai Autodrome. For Italians Massimo Cioci
and Beppe Perazzini as well as Briton Nigel Greensall, today was their
first time in the custom built stockcars.
